ibmvscsis_disconnect(9)

💅 ibmvscsis_disconnect 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie — it's ibmvscsis_disconnect(9) and it's literally the little helper that handles the disconnect vibes. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

ibmvscsis_disconnect — Helper function to disconnect

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ibmvscsis_disconnect (struct work_struct *work );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• work — Pointer to work_struct, which is how we get our hands on our adapter structure. it's giving "backstage pass to the adapter" 🔑

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so picture it: an error has occurred, OR the driver received a Transport event, and now the driver is asking for the command queue to be de-registered in a safe manner. very "we need to shut this down but like, carefully" energy 💅

if there is no outstanding I/O, then we can stop the queue. periodt. ✋

and if we're restarting the queue, that will be reflected in the state of the adapter — so like, check the adapter's state, it'll tell you what's up 👀

EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT: Process environment 🌈
